Yes, you can have O2 travel for £4.99 a day or pay standard rates.
Details here http://international.o2.co.uk/internationaltariffs/travelling_abroad

If you can find free wifi, put phone in airplane mode so there is no risk of the mobile network connecting.

A single text, 1mb of data or a call will incur the charges though.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

Currently using:
Pixel 7a (O2 & Lyca), One Plus 6 (Sfr), iPhone 12 Pro Max (Vodafone)

No charge for just using for photos and wifi. Switch off mobile/cellular data.

@CN2 Follow the advice given above. If you want to be sure you won't be charged for anything, take your sim out of the phone and put it in a safe place. Nano sims are easy to lose, so make sure you remember where you put it.

I DO NOT WORK FOR O2
